This card is for two challenges, the first being our Twisted Sister Challenge for this week, where we were required to case ourselves and add some crimping....I have cased my favourite techniques, sponging, paper piercing, lace....vintage....then of course there is my favourite...CHALKING!!! Sorry it is late girls - I had fully intended to have it up earlier BUT I went to a SU Workshop today and it went a lot longer than we realised....no complaints from me...I learned some amazing techniques...
It is also for the Midnight Madness Sketch Challenge....it is my second card for this week's challenge, we are allowed a maximum of three for three weeks....there is the most incredible Blog Candy up for grabs - you can check it out here: http://priscillastyles.blogspot.com/
I have chalked this image, sponged the edges, added paper piercing, lace, flowers...all the things I love...pearls, paisley embossing...Kindy Glitz (for the wings...although it doesn't show up well in this photo!)....it is ALL there!! These GORJUSS GIRLS are just that - GORJUSS...the DP is from a RAK from the lovely Darla Ryan - thank you Darla...it is such great DP...

Lovely Linda, this is so you!!! A mixture of flavors! Love this image too. Your colors are so well blended! I have not done a lot of chalking but seeing this beauty, I think I'll give it a go!

Linda: This is one of my favorites from you. I LOVE that image and everything you did to the card just added layer upon layer of interest!!! Love all those flowers, the lace, sponging, chalking and that corrogated mat adds so much texture to your card. This really is a fantastic piece of art Linda!!!! TFS!!!!
